The owner, Christine, is fabulous and you can tell she loves her job.
I had originally gone to a bridal boutique in south Florida in late October. early November and tried on a dresses that were very large for me because they did not have my size. Since this was my first, and only wedding, I was not aware that it was "end of season" for bridal gowns and after going to six different stores and trying on over 60 dresses I was having trouble determining what the dress would look like in my size. I wear a wedding dress size 8 and was in size 18's. So when I finally decided, I wanted the original dress I tried on, I was told by the boutique that the dress could no longer be ordered as it had been discontinued but if I would like to schedule another fitting they had several new designs in the store. The last thing I wanted to do was start over. So in despair, I did an internet search and found Elda's Bridal Boutique. When I called her employee said they carried the designer and even if it had been discontinued there was still time to order it. Not only was the same dress less expensive, but they were so friendly, helpful and easy to work with. The dress was ordered early January and received the first week of May, HOWEVER, the manufacturer had made the incorrect dress, well right dress but wrong color...again I was crushed. Now I only had 4 weeks to get the dress, get it altered I had lost weight, and I worked almost every day. Christine handled everything assuring me the manufacturer would expedite the dress and she would make sure it was ready to go on time even if she had to meet me after hours for the fitting. Her confidence was not only calming but reassuring as well that it would be fine. The dress arrived earlier than she said it would with plenty of time for alterations. It looked amazing and she does a beautiful French bustle if you need one!!!

Christine at Elda's is phenomenal. She is personable, sweet and has a true passion for what she does. She was so patient with myself and all of my bridesmaids. I would recommend Elda's to anyone and everyone. It is locally owned and family operated, passed down in generations. Working with Christine was truly a blessing and made my day even more perfect. Thank you Christine!

Elda's is great! I drove from Orlando to shop there because someone told me they had a beautiful selection and great prices, plus I saw that a lot of the dresses I found online were sold there. It was worth the drive! When you are there they focus all of their attention on you and helping you find the perfect gown (complete opposite of like David's Bridal, where it's just chaos), and they are not pushy to make a sale, they just help you figure out what is going to look best on you. The owner, Christine, is such a sweet woman and she gives you her full attention and gives you the feeling that your dress is the most important thing to her, which is so great. During the alteration process and fittings, she was so detail oriented and really made sure my dress was going to look perfect on me as well as feel comfortable and in the end it was perfect! It fit like a glove, didn't move around on me all night, and was the exact perfect length. My dress was perfection and this shop was so great to work with I'm so happy I bought my dress from here.

I love this place! Christine was amazing.i found out about her from my 2 best friends who have both gotten their dresses from her. She is so friendly, helpful, honest and really wants what is best for you. Her prices are the best in town, and she will really work with your budget. I loved my dress so much that I wish I could wear it again, and when my husband saw me he told me I looked stunning and he loved the dress. I wouldn't change anything.

I would definitely NOT recommend shopping at this store, as my experience with them has turned very negative. My mother and I purchased her mother of the bride dress from this store. We asked if they did alterations, and if they would do alterations on my wedding dress even though I had not purchased it from their store. The store owner, who could not stop praising my mothers beauty in the dress she was about to purchase, assured us that yes, we could both have our dresses altered there. After all, my mom bought one of the most expensive dresses of her life there.
Fast forward a month, and we call to make an alterations appointment for my wedding dress. The owner of the store rudely snapped at my mother and told her none of her sales representatives would ever tell a customer that they would do alterations on a bridal dress not purchased there. When my mother tried to explain that we met and talked to her, the owner, she basically suggested my mother was a liar. We took it as, they said whatever it took to get our money for that dress with no intention of fulfilling their promise. On top of that, I can not stand my mother was treated so disrespectfully. Horrible customer service. And we paid to have the dress rushed as my mother lives out of town. We requested to be informed as soon as it came in. When the store finally did call to say it was in, they admitted it had come a few days earlier and they just had not called. If you want to have a negative experience, I guess this would be your bridal shop.

Christine is AMAZING!!! I have gone to Elda's to find the perfect dress for every occasion over the last 20 years (starting with my flower girl dress at my Aunt's wedding in the early 90s).

She has since helped pick out every important dress I have needed in the lifetime (prom, homecoming, wedding dress, my bridesmaid dresses, my mom's mother of the bride dress, my grandmother's dress, etc).

Every dress was sized and altered to perfection - along with being pressed!!

All of my bridal party LOVED working with Christine and the Elda's ladies because they are welcoming, helpful, caring, professional, and timely.

Thank you Christine for all that you do, and I look forward to working with you again soon!
